Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall

FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Broncos to a D. There is reaching, and then there is Trey Moore at slot 152. The Broncos jumped the board by 39 and dared it to prove them wrong.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
In the Round 1 slot they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dillon Thieneman at pick No. 45. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick62
Rnd2
Eli Stowers
They took Eli Stowers at par in slot 62, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94
Rnd3
Zachariah Branch
Nice patience on Zachariah Branch, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 30. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick95
Rnd3
Bryce Lance
They reached into another round for Bryce Lance, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick108
Rnd4
Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at the 108th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick130
Rnd4
Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge at the 130th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick152
Rnd5
Trey Moore
Value said wait; Trey Moore in slot 152 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
The board had Davison Igbinosun higher than Round 5, Pick 30, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick246
Rnd7
Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at the 246th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jamari Lyons
They jumped the gun on Jamari Lyons, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255
Rnd7
Colbie Young
No drama and no debate, Colbie Young went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. It fills a real need, too.
